Grinds360 grows reach with access for junior cycle students
Grinds360 is expanding its platform to support junior cycle students across 11 subjects. The the first of its kind digital and hybrid learning solution entered the senior cycle market in September 2024 combining advanced technology, personalised support, flexibility and quality teaching.
Founded by Ronan Murdock and Brendan Kavanagh, Grinds360 was created out of a shared commitment to both accessibility and excellence in education. The team of dedicated teachers working at Grinds360 recognised a growing gap in Ireland’s traditional grinds industry, with its solution posed to democratise access to grinds across the country
Junior Cycle students and parents two flexible learning plans: a one-year plan for €899 or a two-year plan for students starting in second year for €1,399. This includes weekly live grinds (available for Maths, English, Irish, and Science), on-demand lessons and online masterclasses in seven other subjects, textbooks, digital notes, a study skills programme, and access to the online summer Irish programme.
“We’re bringing the same successful model from Leaving Cert to Junior Cycle, one membership provides unlimited access to all 11 subjects and every revision course, no restrictions. Plus, members get live weekly grinds in English, Irish, Maths, and Science. Tapping into how young people normally interact with and retain information like this makes learning more intuitive, fun and engaging. This is especially important for Junior Cycle students entering secondary school, who are often gaining access to digital tools in the classroom for the first time. Something as simple as having access to a quick lesson on the daily commute to school is setting a new benchmark for how education is being delivered in Ireland,” said Murdock.
Kavanagh added: “We’ve already seen our approach enhance Leaving Certificate preparation in Ireland, now we’re doing the same for students ahead of the junior cycle exams. The earlier young people receive tailored support, unique to their needs and ways of learning, the better. But no student should feel forced to move to a grind school to access this support. This breaks the bond with their school, teachers, and classmates. Grinds360 offers young people a better solution and a choice, and it’s a privilege to be a part of driving this change forward.”
